Sad news indeed top class actor . |

Wasn't there a character in a pub called *Shake hands*
and from memory Yosser gave him one of the most artistic headbuts you will ever see. |
|
By:
Actually the artistic headbut was dealt on someone else as I've found the *shake hands* clip and it isn't artistic
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSAOUZ2BkZI (quality abysmal) farewell Bernard, that acting perfromance will still be talked about in 100 years. |
|
By:
Yes remember Shake Hands played by Iggy Navarro
![]() Also a rather young David Neilson ( Roy Cropper ) played a couple of episodes. |

Sunshine bbc,where he played a grandad,to Steve coogan a gambling addict bin man,was a good drama.
Think he was in Zulu or a similar film |
|
By:
Not sure about Zulu but know he was in Gandhi.
He also played the captain on the Titanic ![]() |

Great actor. As well as all the mentioned roles he played so well he was terrific as the vicar/priest with the guilty secret in Unforgotten. R.I.P. What a loss.

By:
Well RIP. Bernard Hill did a very soothing voiceover for a programme about the Mumbai railway.
He was also the main character in one of the best ever tv dramas: Ollys' Prison. Edward Bond wasn't that impressed with him but for all that it remains one of the most powerful dramas ever put out by the BBC. Get a copy from IMBD if you have a cd player but it was recorded in analogue. |

Marvellous stuff from mitolo. Lol
Say it as you see it and you can't go wrong. |

At the end of the day they're only actors reading lines written by someone else.

Grew up in Liverpool was about 14 When Boys From The Blackstuff was on.
Proper working class area. High unemployment and Redundancys by the day. Sunday night BBC either 9 or 10 Oclock. Depressing as Fck. Used to watch it go to Bed and have to get up and go to school on a Monday. Used to think what is the fckinn point of going if thats what lifes gonna be like. Wish Id never watched it due to the negative impact it had. |

Bleasdale may have been a tart but Bernard is a screen legend.
That scene with Souness, I was scared it was going to kick off between the pair of them. |

By:
Hill was very good in my favourite film The Bounty.

THE MARTON COUNTRY CLUB in m,boro where the tarmac job took place NEVER HAD A SAUNA and HAS NOW BEEN BURNED TO THE GROUND |

By:
My memories of BH in the BFTBS are
Copper giving him a dressing down and Yosser saying but, but, but to each sentence prior to the inevitable and meeting Graeme Souness in a night club telling him "you look like me, and Magnum, he's an American" classic RIP Bernard |
|
By:
The nightclub! Brilliant. Sammy Lee was there as well as I recall.
Souness tried to look cool but could act as well as Bernard could play football! ![]() |
